What sucks about most of this AMP and Instant Article type stuff is that it seems only done to push people into walled gardens. I'll accept AMP if it keeps the content coming from search, but if its a backdoor with articles on a mobile APP and not mobile WEB then screw them. I don't want Facebook App being my only front door just as I don't want some Google app being my only front door. Setups like this make me feel like they're deviating from the "make it fast for small devices" to "make it look like FB instant articles so we can monetize it our apps".. hope i'm wrong.
